To me it is very close to PVS14 without the big price tag. Great item
This is perfect for moving through my woods at night. Great budget night vision. Perfect for my application.
Easy to operate and amazingly clear picture. Very solid construction.
Good quality build.
Love the laser. On of the best for the civilian market.
Night vision is great.
Would highly recommend.
I had a little trouble with the fitment of the dovetail but after a little grease and sanding of the edges, it fit perfectly. Honestly, you won’t beat this deal. Sure you get what you pay for, but it exceeded expectations. My friends tried mine out and are going to be ordering theirs soon.
This is my first night vision setup so I cant compare & contrast it to anything that could be better or worse, But it was affordable & I tried it out during night & I could for sure see even out to the distance,The different settings also are much appreciated & I am looking forward to seeing future products especially thermal.
I researched this subject for months and decided on the NVG50 due to its great reviews. I'm really a novice with night vision, but I'm a retired military member. I want to eliminate some farm rats that chewed through my car wiring and caused $2,700 in damage. Now it's my turn.
Best budget digital night vision in my opinion, highly recommended.
A must have for nvg30 or nvg50. Would definitely recommend picking this up!!
I like everything about it. The only thing I would change is the eye relief. Sometimes when moving around the monocular will move just a tiny bit n eye quality is not as visible....... Seems like u have to really line it up really good to get a good usable view. If there was some way to make that better it be super awesome....
This is the best for NV . Really clear, I have the duals and the sight picture is good. It's not Analog, but unless you are a Navy Seal, Digital is all any Civilian will ever need.
NVG50 is a solid option
Only issue was that I bought the wrong dual mount. The one for the NVG30 does not fit properly on the two NVG50s. It was my error. I bought the proper mount (not as cool looking) but it is very good for the NVG50. I am now waiting on two NVG30s to use the other mount. No other issues. I have a PVS14 and the NVG50 is a legit 90% solution and in some ways is better (not concerned with light damage).
For 400 bucks, its a great unit and has many great features. It has solid ambient light sensors, the screen options are easy on the eyes, and it works well in bino form. I don't like the screen lag or having to adjust for distance as well as eye focus ( it can be alot to manage), and the charger/SD area is a bit difficult to get a cable to plug in in bino form. I found a guy on Ebay who sells upgraded lenses that function better than the OEM at focusing, that may rectify my focus issue. I put a 45° small usb-c to reduce space but I will lose out on water resistance. All in all, not too bad. We are really close to peer to peer digital night vision.

I bought this as a supplementary unit so my buddy can go with me on night hikes/NVG kayaking. Having a PVS-14 is awesome but not having a buddy that also has night vision sucks, so this works great.
I expected functional. But the 30s are pretty great. For the price can’t beat them. I suggest reaching out to GNG and have them help you get all the right parts. Makes all the difference. Good prices and great service = the right place to spend your money.
The wider angle is game changer. The added weight is nominal. And Kyle is a great guy to work with.
Simple to work and a must for night ops. Good for day and non NVG too. Good Nite is a pleasure to work with FYI.
Purchased one around Christmas and immediately kicked myself for not getting two. Purchased a second and I am beyond excited. For a budget option that’s worth the fun with the kids or scouting and hunting at night, these fit the bill. I also got the kiji light from Goodnight Gear to run on my helmet as a secondary IR source and also paired with a SMS Laser HFXC for a wml makes a great coyote setup . One last thing, I am also running a 10000 mah rugged power bank from Amazon to extend battery life and usage of the units and it works great.
It works as advertised until you turn on the IR and the lens blocks a portion of the light, the bottom third of your vision looks like an eclipse and there is a haze around the image. Probably works well with an external IR illuminator. The focus issues in the photos are from me not the lens.
the larger screw that goes through the channeled arm and into the center of the adapter on top of the scope should have wings to tighten it instead of the hex screw. that would make it easier to adjust while helmet is on your head.
I ordered the nvg30 because I wanted a something
Fun for my hog hunting trip that was comes open and did it deliver. Not only is the nvg30 work for want I wanted but when UPS lost my order the customer service time acted very fast and responsibly to find a was to get my order to me. If you looking to get a start in the a night vision set up this is definitely the best for the money and customer service.
I did a ton of research before purchasing the NVG30. I found that Goodnite Gear accurately and honestly represents the product and its capabilities. You can shoot with the NVG30, but it is not designed for combat. That should be common knowledge. I had a question before purchasing and I got a prompt response and made my purchase shortly thereafter. I have been finding every excuse to use the NVG30. I walk the dog at night, I ride my dirt bike with it, I've gone to the gun range and used the NVG30. It's a great product, goodnite gear is a great company, and its very refreshing to have a product represented so accurately and honestly. I wasn't going to buy a second one and bridge them, but after using mine for a week I will be purchasing another one this year. Thank you Goodnite Gear.
I can tell you that having been in the Marine Corps 6 years with 2 deployments from 2017-2023 this NVG50 is the most cost effective and sufficient substitution to the standard issue green phosphor PVS-14 that I used in the Middle East and on the Pacific Ocean. High quality, incredibly user friendly, and an incredible force multiplier that you need to buy NOW.
It is very well made and has great value, and the thank you note was great. It just shows the personal attention that is given to the order will definitely order from Good Night Gear.
